About this product

Product Information

Philip Roth's hilarious novel about sex, growing up, psychoanalysis, now reissued in electric new backlist style 'The most outrageously funny book about sex written' Guardian Portnoy's Complaint n. after Alexander Portnoy (1933-) -A disorder in which strongly-felt ethical and altruistic impulses are perpetually warring with extreme sexual longings, often of a perverse nature. Portnoy's Complaint tells the tale of young Jewish lawyer Alexander Portnoy and his scandalous sexual confessions to his psychiatrist. As narrated by Portnoy, he takes the reader on a journey through his childhood to adolescence to present day while articulating his sexual desire, frustration and neurosis in shockingly candid ways. Hysterically funny and daringly intimate, Portnoy's Complaint was an immediate bestseller upon its publication and elevated Roth to an international literary celebrity.
